Agriculture and Physical Education Where Honors Are Due Fredric Willialn Ullrich received his B. S. and Ph. M. degree from the University of Wis- consin. He teaches biology, general science, chemistry, physics, and senior science. He has charge of selling tickets for our plays. concerts, and athletic activities, and acts as advisor of our popular Photography Club. He thinks fish, steak, shrimp, mashed pota- toes, and cherry pic are great. His pet peeves are lots of noise, and people who drive in the middle of the road. During the summer he was busy teaching chemistry and physics at Platteville State Teachers College. Later he went fishing. His real ambition is to master the art of teaching. Marian Edwards received her education at Stout institute and at the University 0fWlCOIlSlI1Q this training entitles her to her position of teaching home economics to boys and girls. As head of the lunch club, she is kept busy preparing meals during the cold winter months. All types of foods, carefully prepared. are her delight. She could idle away many a day with a good novel. 'l.lidn't have time doesn't fit as an alibi in her classes. An-untidy room and interruptions at class time are her pet peeves. Kenneth William Kundert gathered his knowledge of agriculture from the University of Nllisconsin, where he obtained his B. S. degree. He of'ten remembers that night he tied a goat to the sorority porch. He can be tempted with meats, fruits, and fiction books, and says he would be either a farmer or a mathematics teacher if he could do it all over again. His pet peeves are giggling girls, smart alec boys, and people who talk out loud in a movie. The favorite alibi of his students seems to be rl didn't. have time. Carl John Hager attended Stout Institute, NVhitewater State Teachers College, and the Un- iversity ot' Xlfisconsin to obtain knowledge to teach tl1e boys manual training and athletics. He is our dynamic coach of football and basketball. Any kind of food that is placed before him delights him. He once stopped a walk out in college when the students were going to strike to begin school at 7:30 instead of 9:00. This summer he spent six weeks as a reserve officer, for he is a captain, at Camp McCoy, NVisconsin. XVhen asked. he told us his greatest ambition was to build character. Marie Elizabeth Stoelting received her B. S. degree from the University of XVisconsin. Her position consists of teaching physical education in the elementary school and to the girls in high schoolg she is advisor of the C. A. A. She spent two summers acting as coun- sellor in a girls' camp in Pennsylvania. Chocolate eclairs top her list of goodies, and inattentive pupils peeve her. Daisy is no book worm. Someday she would like to be a camp director. PACE l-'OIQIKTEEN

sfs The Course of Stud Well Begun ls Half Done o ,I -ft .1 l J Y 'Q Lf.-md' 3 l f j. Seeds which are planted and cultivated, and given a still better chance to develop into strong healthy plants by the addition of certain elements to the soil in which they are planted, can easily be compared to a student body atfected by a. modern course of study. As each year passes on, we find a marked improvement in our carefully tended species ol' valuable student life. By cross- breeding the eight required and the eight elective subjects with extra-curricular activities, we reap a still better harvest. Eight subjects are required for graduation. The freshman takes English, general science, and citizenship: the sophomore, English and world history: the junior, American history and Eng- lish: and the senior, only one subject, the study oi' social problems and economics. The subjects which a student selects determines what voca- tion he will undoubtedly enter in the future. They serve as a basis for anchoring the roots ol' a later career. A tresliman has the choice of either home economics, manual arts, or Latin. Latin tsecond yearj, algebra, typing, or biology is the group from which the sophomores choose two. The juniors lind in their elective list geometry, shorthand, general geography, and chemistry toffered in alternate years with physicsj. The seniors may take their choice of three subjects from the following: stenography, bookkeeping, English, mathematics, and senior science ifoifered to students who had neither chemistry or physicsj. Adanced algebra, solid geom- etry, or trigonometry may be taken by special arrangement. Agri- culture may be elected all Four years. Physical education is a requirement all four years. Students are oifered a large number ot' extra-curricular activitiesg namely, band, orchestra, glee club, a cappella choir, Chefs' Club, G.A.A., Photography Club, Jay Statf, and Scribblers' tllub. All activities take place during school hours so every student can get full benefit i'rom them. Glasses are conveniently divided, and therefore, as much indi- vidual care can be given to these promising experiments, as Luther Burbank gave to his potatoes. By scientific gra'i'ting, transpianting, and pruning, each student blooms forth alter four years of treat- ment, a sturdy and dependable citizen.
